Expression of Interest: Evaluating the quality of Word Embeddings for SSA - Participant systems will be published in a Springer book

[Mauro Dragoni]

Dear all,

contextually to the ESWC 2018 conference, we run a challenge on Semantic Sentiment Analysis.

One of the task is the classic polarity inference of a document.

We are looking for systems to evaluate the quality of various sets of embeddings that have been already generated.

Thus, your task would be:

- to download the embeddings (download link will be provided shortly);

- to design a solution exploting them (neural networks, genetic algorithms, probabilistic solutions, etc.); and 

- to evaluate your approach on our dataset.

Participants will have the opportunity to submit the description of their systems in order to publish them on a dedicated Springer book.

If you are interest to participate in this task:

- please confirm your interest by mail;

- submit an abstract of your system (two pages are enough) before April 6th at the following link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=emsasw2018 and select "Challenge" in the Category option.

The schedule is the following:

- April 6th, description of the system

- May 31st, computation of all results

- June 30th, submission of system paper (if you want).

Thanks in advance for your participation.

Best,

Mauro.
